Movie Review: X-men Origins: Wolverine


Review for people who LOVE X-Men: 9/10
Review that you could find in real life: 6/10

I was so excited when I saw the commercial for this one. I am a HUGE fan of everything X-Men and thought I was in for quite the treat when the ad promised many of the original characters. Unfortunately, I was a little let down even thought I told myself that it probably wasn't going to be as good as I was hoping for.

While most characters had an 'okay' role in this movie, two really really let me down.
Gambit was distastefully added in, used to only fix plot holes and Emma Frost was not the sultry blonde like in the comic books; she was a tiny girl who was barely even acknowledged!

On the good notes...
-The aesthetics were delicious, however; there were a few scenes that were so cheesy and cliche that I facepalmed
-I really liked how Scott was introduced into the whole X-Men deal
-Hugh Jackman did not dissapoint in the least
